A New Pilgrimage: Sonnet Xiv Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACCACAADADEF| To day there is no cloud upon thy face | A |
| Paris fair city of romance and doom | B |
| Thy memories do not grieve thee and no trace | A |
| Lives of their tears for us who after come | C |
| All is forgotten thy high martyrdom | C |
| Thy rage thy vows thy vauntings thy disgrace | A |
| With those who died for thee to beat of drum | C |
| And those who lived to see thee kingdomless | A |
| Indeed thou art a woman in thy mirths | A |
| A woman in thy griefs which leave thee young | D |
| A prudent virgin still despite the births | A |
| Of these sad prodigies thy bards have sung | D |
| What to thy whoredoms is a vanished throne | E |
| A chair where a fool sat and he is gone | F |
